2012 Toyota Prius C Front Driver Side Power Window & Door Lock Switch TRQ SWA60355

Hi. I'm Mike from 1AAuto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years!

To remove this, take a plastic prying tool. You can get this from 1AAuto.com. Just kind of push in on this side. It'll pop it out. There's a clip there that you're trying to pop it out of. Push in the tab.

We're going to pop off the piece behind the mirror. You're going to get your fingers in there or use a plastic trim tool. It just pops to the two clips.

To pop off this grab handle here, use a plastic trim tool. Pry it up. Pop it out. Put that aside. Pull the door handle open.

Use the plastic prying tool to get in here. Pop that out.

Use the plastic prying too to get this clip out. If you can get the middle up, that helps unlock it, but sometimes when they're flush like that, it's difficult. This one snapped, but it'll still work.

I'm going to use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the one that’s behind the door handle. There's one in here and one deep in here.

With these screws removed, the door panel is clipped around this edge and then it's going to lift off of the door frame. So I'm going to reach under here and pull it out. Do the same on this side. It’s free. Just be careful. The screws are in there so one just fell out. Put that aside.

You disconnect the door handles. That's the door lock. Pop this out. Pull it straight up. Same thing with this one. Pop it out. This whole piece actually came with it. That's fine. I guess that can stay in there.

Disconnect the main harness from the door panel. It's clipped up here. There's a lock that's on the other side. Push it in. Pull it down.

Door panel will come off. Pop this out. Pull it right off. Put that side.

To change the master window switch, which also has the power door lock button in it, it's got a sub-harness that's mounted to the back of this door panel. There's a lock on this. You could undo it by pulling it out, but it's a lot easier to remove the switch first. Don't get in here and start prying with a screwdriver. I'm going to show you how to unlock this, but you've got to take this out of the door panel first. Just take a Phillips head screwdriver. These are just little screws that are self-tapping into the plastic. They should come out pretty easy. I'm going to put them aside here. We've got all three screws out.

This will just pull straight out of the plastic. There's our master window switch, door lock switch, window cancel switch. We want to unplug it from the harness. Just kind of move it to kind of straighten it out. Pull back on this. It unlocks it, and then lets the whole harness pull out. There is a mechanism in here as you push it in to lock it, see if I can get it to go. Actually this might be on it, but you can see there's like a little lever in there. That actually locks into a keyway that's in here in the connector.

To install our new switch, I'm going to pull this down, leave it open, and then we'll put it together.

This is our old switch from our vehicle, and our brand new one from 1AAuto.com. It’s the same design, same type of type on here, same size. The plastic is a little different. It doesn't really matter, it should operate in the same manner. It's got the same lock here, so this will fit great and work great for you in your vehicle.

Take our new switch. Got the lock on the connector unlocked. It's going to match up with this tab that's in here. Put it in place, then push this in. Now it's locked in place. Put it up into the door panel. It should slide right in. Reinstall the three self-tapping screws. You don't have to over tighten them; they're just going into plastic.

Make sure you don't get these cables mixed up because they can fit in both position. The white one goes on top. Put the little lead weight in there. Flip it over. Clip it into place. Take the green one. You'll kind of know because one is longer than the other. They kind of fit better in their perspective spots. Put the little lead weight over there, just like the top one. Snap it into place. So one pulls the door handle. One locks and unlocks the doors.

We're ready for the door trim panel. So the top of this has some metal clips. They will slide onto the thin part of the sheet metal here. There is a locating pin here. Then you've got the clips all the way around and the screws that'll hold it on together.

Before we do that, we need to feed this into here. Just going to get it started. For our courtesy light, there's an opening in the bottom of the door panel for it. Just feed that through. A little trick to install this: get that started.

Take your door harness. Don't forget to plug that in or else nothing's going to work. It'll snap into place, so get this lined up. It's got a couple pins on the top and the bottom and those are going to push into these tabs.

Now we take the door panel and kind of push it up towards the window. Push it up towards the window and then down over. Sometimes you’ve got to push in on it. Just push down just like that. I can see the screw holes are lining up. I've got that where I want it. I'm just going to push in. That’s just going to capture all the clips.

I can reinstall the screws and install this small screw here behind the door handle. Our little trim piece has got all the clips. Pull this door handle out and get this front one captured first. Push that in place.

There's two large self-tapping screws. One's going to go in the top. One's going to go in the bottom here in this door pull handle. Start with the top on. With two screws installed, we can clip this back into place.

Install our little triangle piece that goes near the mirror. These two clips are here. Push right into place. There's this little clip here. This one kind of broke, but we push it in there. If you don't have it, it's not a big deal. It doesn't do too much. The rest of the door panel is secure.

To reinstall the courtesy light and plug it back in. Push that up into place. The door panel's reinstalled.
